The following product is going to be reinstalled:
  openSUSE-11.1-0.i586  (openSUSE-11.1-Oss, openSUSE)


The following package is going to change vendor:
  openSUSE-release-11.1-1.19.i586  (openSUSE-11.1-Oss, openSUSE)


....

I have also noticed that the packages in the section will be forced to install affter adding a 3rd party repo and installing packages from it using sw_single.

These packages won't be installed due to zypper up

Very strange behavior.

Marcus

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. zypper dup
or
2. add 3rd party repo, install package from this repo will also install all packages from the above 'The following NEW packages are going to be installed' section.
Actual Results:  
zypper dup will install/remove packages on a fresh oS 11.1 installation without repo changes.

Expected Results:  
zypper dup will simply do nothing on a fresh install with original repos and only upgrade packages if new repo/versions are added.

Please create and attach a solver testcase (zypper dup --debug-solver).

Comment 2 Michael Andres 2009-06-16 13:18:31 UTC

(Don't need the testcase anymore)

The new packages are installed because openSUSE-11.1-Oss contains more packages than the CD/DVD media. Those are additional recommended ones.

The suggested reinstall of noarch packages happens because those packages were taken from another build. The newer buildtime indicates that the content changed, even if the version did not increase. That's why they get reinstalled.

Comment 3 Forgotten User OfsFetVrzR 2009-06-16 13:23:54 UTC

Dear Michael,

that's what I thought, too. But why is flash-player and gst-fluendo-mp3 recommended ?

Best Regards
Marcus

Comment 4 Michael Andres 2009-06-18 12:01:35 UTC

Sorry but I don't know all the dependencies of all packages. But afaik there are several pullin-* packages which triger online updates of packages.




For flash-player there's a package pullin-flash-player which triggers online update of
flash-player. That's probably the reason.

Comment 5 Michael Andres 2009-06-18 12:03:24 UTC

Similar: pullin-fluendo-mp3.

Comment 6 Forgotten User OfsFetVrzR 2009-06-18 13:11:23 UTC

That's okay as far as flash or fluendo-mp3 is installed on the system, which wasn't the case here.

Best Regards
Marcus

Comment 7 Michael Andres 2009-06-19 10:43:00 UTC

Maybe I should have said 'online installation'. The pullin- packages seem to be placeholders for those packages, because they are seem to be available online only.
